Introduction

I am Founder of clean-tech startup POWERleap Inc.- we design energy harvesters that power wireless sensors to control systems and track data. We recently moved to SF to take advantage of events like the ones this group organizes!

The Silicon Valley Forum Emerging Technology Forum is a meeting focused on the future. The goal is to talk about technologies that aren’t quite here yet, to discuss trends in software technologies, and, in general, to examine what’s coming down the pipeline.
